Isenberg Online

Admissions | Academics | Advising

Isenberg’s Hybrid MBA option is ideal for individuals who seek a rich in-residence education but want to minimize time spent away from home. Less disruptive to a busy life and career, students first complete the MBA business core curriculum online at an individualized pace and tailored to each student’s schedule, then transition to a 9-month on-campus immersion experience at the renowned Isenberg School of Management at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

• Enables students to broaden and enrich their personal and professional network by interacting with a vibrant global community of students, scholars, and business leaders.
• Delivers an in-residence experience that allows students to focus in entrepreneurship, finance, or marketing.
